STUDENT OF THE WEEK...

The student of the week is CECILIA HARRIS for demonstrating the GWCS value of LEARNING!

Cecilia is the kind of student who makes all of her classes better just by being in them! Cecilia is enthusiastic about learning and works hard to meet or exceed every benchmark. One of Cecilia’s teachers was heard saying, “Her eagerness to contribute in class is off the charts!”

Check out the 'Student of the Week' bulletin board near Mr. Pereira's classroom. Each week a student is recognized for his or her demonstration of one of the eight GWCS Values.

COYOTE PAC PAW PRINTS...

Coyote PAC is a GWCS program designed to more formally incorporate the wealth of parental resources and talents that are so obviously abundant in our community. PAC Paw Prints is a section of the weekly newsletter where you can catch-up on all PAC related news and events.

PAC #1 - CALLING ALL PARENTS

PAC PARENTS' MEETING

Please RSVP YES to the PAC Parent Meeting on Thursday, October 13th from 6:30 PM-8:00 PM! In this meeting parents will get to know each other and hear more information about how to optimize their family's experience at GWCS. We are such a small school that we really depend on parent involvement. It actually DOES take a village!

We have rewarding and enriching opportunities for every level of commitment/involvement—in front of and behind the scenes. Please RSVP YES and be a part of your Coyote PAC!

Dinner will be provided! Come as you are! Please RSVP so that we know how much food to order. Thank you!

PAC #3 - VOLUNTEERS NEEDED

GWCS is very fortunate to have a strong family-volunteer base whose commitment makes many GWCS programs possible. This base really makes a huge difference in our small, tight-knit community. Thank you to all of the parents who completed the PAC Volunteer Form during Back-to-School Night! We have a strong list of volunteers to get the school year started but still need more volunteers. Please consider how you can help.

PAC #4 - APPLE BOWL

(SIGN-UP SLOTS AVAILABLE THRU THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR)

Apple Donations Needed for the Student Lounge Apple Bowl: Parents are invited to help keep the apple bowl in the cafe full of apples for the students to munch on during the day. If you're interested in contributing, please click here to signup to donate a bag of apples. When you, or your child brings your apples to school - put them in the blue bowl in the sofa area. If the bowl is full, put them in the designated "apple drawer" in the refrigerator.
